Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will dine with the Aga Khan on Wednesday — part of the spiritual leader’s tour through Canada to mark his diamond jubilee.
The Prime Minister’s Office confirmed Trudeau and the Aga Khan will share a meal at an event hosted by Gov. Gen. Julie Payette at Rideau Hall, the official residence of the Governor General.
“Canada and the Ismaili Imamat have a long history of partnership with programs around the world that have a positive impact on people’s lives. We have worked together on a number of development and humanitarian initiatives that target the world’s poorest and most vulnerable, including women and girls,” said a press release from Global Affairs Canada announcing the Aga Khan’s visit.
The Aga Khan will also travel to Vancouver and Calgary as he celebrates 60 years as the spiritual leader of the Ismaili Muslim faith.
